"The city and a group of developers broke ground Monday on an 11-story affordable and supportive housing development in the University Heights section of the Bronx.

Much of the building at 2264 Morris Avenue will house working-class families, but 31 units will offer supportive housing, according to a press release from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development. Of those 31 apartments, 17 will be reserved for young adults with mental illness aging out of foster care, and 14 will go to homeless adults struggling with mental illness. The 61 remaining units will rent to families who earn between $29,400 to $50,340."
